- General Page - Tier 2Leadership Christine Frost Vice President, Nursing and Chief Nursing Officer, Magnet® Recognition In 2019, Luminis Health Anne Arundel Medical Center (AAMC) achieved our second Magnet® designation as a reflection of excellence inpatient and family-centered care, nursing professionalism and teamwork. Magnet recognition is awarded by the American Nurses Credentialing Center’s (ANCC) Magnet Recognition Program®, which ensures that rigorous standards for nursing excellence are met, and excellent patient outcomes are achieved. With this prestigious credential, AAMC joins the Magnet community—a select group of fewer than 10% of U.S. hospitals. So far, only nine other hospitals in Maryland and two in Washington, D.C. have achieved Magnet® recognition since the program’s inception in 1990. Nursing Professional Practice Model Developed by the nurses at LHAAMC, the nursing professional practice model guides the nursing strategic plan and identifies practice expectations for all nurses. The PPM illustrates how nurses practice, develop professionally, communicate, and collaborate to provide the best quality care for the patients, families and communities served by the organization. The model illustrates the integration and alignment of LHAAMC’s organizational mission, vision and values with nursing practice. The central image of the model is a jewel-like lamp, a symbol that represents the historic town of Annapolis and is part of the Luminis Health logo. The lamp conjures the spirit of Florence Nightingale and, as hers did, serves as the beacon of light that the hospital represents to the community as it works to enhance the health of the people it serves., Nursing Professional Governance The voice of nursing is paramount at LHAAMC. Since 2006, nurses have participated in shared governance councils where they make decisions that drive nursing quality and practice across the organization. , DAISY Program Since 2010, LHAAMC has participated in the DAISY Award program, an international recognition program that honors and celebrates the skillful, compassionate care nurses provide every day. The family of J. Patrick Barnes established the DAISY Foundation in 1999 after he died from complications of an auto-immune disease. Throughout his hospitalization, Patrick and his family deeply appreciated the care and compassion of the nurses who cared for them. Learn more about the DAISY Foundation by visiting their website. DAISY Foundation Logo“Powered by knowledge. Inspire by caring.” Is the LHAAMC nursing motto, and it captures the depth and complexity of the work we do here every day. Guided by the R.I.S.E. values of Respect, Inclusion, Service and Excellence as well as their professional practice model, nurses at LHAAMC spend every moment enhancing the health of the people and communities we serve.

- General Page - Tier 2Accessibility Resources The resources listed below provide general information about website accessibility as well as information about using accessibility features included on specific devices and browsers. For example, the Google Chrome browser has extensions that allow users to adjust the colors or contrast of a web page to make it easier to see.Luminis Health is committed to providing a digital experience accessible to all visitors, patients, and families.We launched the new LuminisHealth.org website to standards set by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) in its Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, level A and AA. These guidelines help organizations make their websites easier to use for people with visual, physical, cognitive, and other disabilities.Continuing to meet these changing guidelines is an ongoing process and we will continue developing to standards that improve the experience for everyone.Current Accessibility FeaturesOur compliance with WCAG guidelines includes many web design and development considerations, including but not limited to:Using adequate color contrast and clean fonts to improve visibility.Ensuring you can use the site as intended with page zoom.Ensuring you can navigate the site using only a keyboard (for example, through features such as focus, carousel controls, and skip to main content).Compatibility with speech recognition software.Including alternative text ("alt text") descriptions for all images so screen readers can describe them.Designing all interactive elements (such as buttons) to meet Google's touch target sizing standards (48px x 48px).Ongoing ImprovementWe test our site performance with multiple browsers and screen readers and use a variety of tools to assess and monitor compliance, including AXE tools and Google's Lighthouse accessibility testing feature. We test screen reader usability via shallow navigational methods by the VoiceOver utility and NVDA through a cross-browser/device access application.Our approach is to first identify and assess the most severe issues for remediation.

- General Page - Tier 2SOS Committees Patient Mentors Breast cancer survivors serve as mentors who can provide information and real life experience to help alleviate some of the fear and anxiety caused by the diagnosis of breast cancer. SOS mentors volunteer their time to give a sympathetic listening ear, share experiences, but above all, bring understanding to the experience of newly diagnosed patients. Mentors provide an invaluable "buddy support system" and support patient over the course of their treatment. Delivery Scheduler A weekly schedule of breast cancer surgeries, excluding patient names or information, is compiled by the Fortney Breast Center and forwarded to the SOS scheduler who then emails the schedule to the Patient Visitors. These volunteers then reply to the scheduler regarding their availability and which days and times they are able to deliver the SOS gift tote bags. Gift Bag Packers/Inventory Monitors The gift tote bags are packed by volunteers on a biweekly basis so that they are available in the Fortney Breast Center library workroom to be picked up by the Patient Visitors. Many of the items that are packed include "comfort gifts," such as lip balm, protective seatbelt pillows, scarves, socks, and lotion, plus reference materials. An inventory list is updated frequently so that the gift items can be reordered on a timely basis. Patient Visitors These volunteer survivors deliver the wonderful SOS gift tote bags to our patients in the hospital on the day of their surgeries. This visit provides a source of hope and comfort at an overwhelming time. The bags include different products and niceties to help our patients cope both physically and emotionally in their post- operative period. Library Mentors/Office Support SOS members are encouraged to staff the Fortney Breast Center Library, which is a hub for SOS efforts. Volunteers are available as an on-site resource for newly diagnosed patients and their families. These volunteers are mini-mentors who have been trained to offer real life support and understanding of a patient's journey. Sometimes just chatting with a survivor provides proof that one day at a time does result in an end to the treatment process. Library volunteers offer a welcoming presence to the Library and provide office support to the Fortney Breast Center staff when needed. New Member Liason The SOS organization is constantly evolving and seeking new volunteers who are breast cancer survivors having completed active treatment one year ago or longer. This liaison maintains a contact list of all individuals who indicate interest in becoming new SOS volunteers. These names are then forwarded to a hospital staff member who sets up the SOS training sessions and prerequisites. The SOS Membership List is also maintained by this volunteer liaison.
